Re: TVS Apache RTR 180
Shahbaz have you considered the Ceat vertigo sport 120/80-17 its a tubeless tyre with similar aspect ratio & just 10mm wider than stock. Its one of the best tyre for leh riding with its specific thread pattern. All the best for your ride, Ride safe.Originally posted by shahbaz63 View PostComment

Re: TVS Apache RTR 180
Bike is still AC.I think I have those dc convertors(diodes) to convert Ac to dc.Originally posted by susheelkumar View Post
Anyway..very less light output.Don't know exactly what is the problem.All connections are perfect,maybe HID is damaged..some scratches on projector lens too,or still running on ac is the issue.
Just tired of riding almost blind in nights.Including labour cost was 8k as said by the previous owner,which I seriously doubt.

Re: TVS Apache RTR 180
Visiting Leh? You dont have much options. AFAIK Ceat Vertigo 120/80 is the safest bet! You dont want to go there with any puncture prone tyres. Vertigo is hard compound and those stud type pattern should help a lot in off road conditions around Leh. But it may not offer much benefit on normal roads when compared with stock TVS.Originally posted by shahbaz63 View Post
You can also look for Impulse's rear tyre (110/90-17). But I have no idea if it is better than ceat vertigo or not.Comment

Re: TVS Apache RTR 180
I did my Leh ride in 2011, with brand new stock size MRF zappers. Unless you plan on doing mad high speed offroading a new normal road tyre would do good in Leh too...Originally posted by shahbaz63 View PostComment

Re: TVS Apache RTR 180
For Leh I would suggest CEAT vertigo Sports.......best offroading tyre.....but on open highways you would feel you are riding on mini-speedbreakers. :PComment

Re: TVS Apache RTR 180
@lijok : The exhaust or the paint??
Paint is normal heat resistant spray...till the time I get someone who can do powder coat

Re: TVS Apache RTR 180
How good it is in Wet & dry conditions??Originally posted by lijok View Post
I'm sure you would have experienced both during your Leh trip.
If its really good, then I too would like to go for it. I thought of going for Michellin sirac for rear. front tires is definitely zap-fs.---------------------------------------------------------------------------

All the best buddy! Do post your first impressionsOriginally posted by prateek2210 View PostWink Wink.......Work in progress
Even I wanted to try out something for the RC exhaust. Have you tried powder coating? I have read even that will come off in sometime. Joel had recommended ceramic coating but yet to find someone who can do it.Originally posted by lijok View PostComment

Re: TVS Apache RTR 180
I have seen Vertigo & its only meant for Off Roading (somwhow), I am not going to do high speed off roading, but it should be easy to go through in muddy or off roading conditions...
I have heard Dual Purpose Tyre, can any one give me any exmpple about it ?
Also I have seen Sirac tyres .. hows it ? ok for LEH ?Comment
